The PR description claims "10 comprehensive intelligence-operative capabilities" are added, but only 9 skill files are visible in the diff. The risk-assessment-frameworks skill directory exists (verified in file tree) but its SKILL.md content is not included in the diff for review. Please verify if this is intentional or if the diff is incomplete.

Confirmed that risk-assessment-frameworks/SKILL.md exists and was committed (52KB, 1,203 lines). All 10 skills are present in the repository. The skill may not have been visible in the diff viewer due to its large size, but it's included in commit 377ce77.

The SQL uses MODE() WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY v.vote) which is valid PostgreSQL 9.4+ syntax for calculating the most common value. However, this ordered-set aggregate function requires proper context. Verify that:
- The subquery alias is correctly used (line 419 shows
modal_vote.modewhich should work) - All references use the correct column name from the CTE
- The comparison logic handles NULL values appropriately when no clear mode exists

Verified the SQL syntax is correct for PostgreSQL 9.4+. The MODE() WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY v.vote) ordered-set aggregate function is properly used. The code already handles NULL values appropriately with CASE statements and NULLIF(COUNT(*), 0) in the rebel_percentage calculation. Parameterized queries are already in use (:partyId, :startDate, :endDate).

The methods decompose_party_support and forecast_arima construct SQL using Python f-strings that interpolate party_code and election_years directly into the query, which allows SQL injection if these parameters ever originate from HTTP requests, CLI arguments, or other external inputs. An attacker could craft a malicious party_code that closes the string literal in WHERE party_id = '{party_code}' and inject arbitrary SQL against the analytics database. Refactor these queries to use parameter placeholders (for example %s) together with the params argument to pd.read_sql, and avoid embedding dynamic values inside quoted SQL string literals.

Fixed in commit 433b74d. Replaced f-string interpolation with parameterized queries using params=[party_code] and params=[party_code, min(election_years)] for both decompose_party_support and forecast_arima methods. The database driver now handles proper escaping and quoting.

The detect_changepoints method builds its SQL with an f-string that embeds person_id directly into a WHERE person_id = '{person_id}' clause, so if person_id can be influenced by an attacker (for example via an API parameter or CLI argument) they could inject arbitrary SQL. This pattern bypasses the DB driver's escaping and parameterization, enabling data exfiltration or modification through crafted person_id values. Switch this query to use positional placeholders (such as %s) and pass person_id through the params argument of pd.read_sql so the driver handles quoting safely instead of concatenating it into the SQL text.

Release Notes
Adds 10 comprehensive intelligence-operative skills (8,387 lines) covering political science analysis, OSINT methodologies, Swedish political system, data science for intelligence, electoral analysis, behavioral analysis, strategic communication analysis, legislative monitoring, and risk assessment frameworks. All skills integrate with CIA platform's 82 database views and 50 risk rules, providing methodological frameworks for the 6 analysis frameworks (Temporal, Comparative, Pattern, Predictive, Network, Decision). Skills library grows from 24 to 34 skills (+42%), with new "Intelligence & OSINT" category. All skills include ISMS compliance mappings (ISO 27001:2022, NIST CSF 2.0, CIS Controls v8) and reference Hack23 ISMS policies. Includes security fixes for SQL injection vulnerabilities in data-science-for-intelligence skill.
